Patients receive temozolomide PO QD on days 1-7 of each cycle and olaparib PO BID on days 1-7 of each cycle. Cycles repeat every 21 days in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. Patients undergo CT scan or MRI and/or bone scans throughout the trial. Patients also undergo collection of blood samples throughout the trial.

Patients receive trabectedin IV continuously over 24 hours on day 1 of each cycle or pazopanib PO QD on days 1-21 of each cycle. Cycles repeat every 21 days in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. Patients undergo CT scan or MRI and/or bone scans throughout the trial. Patients also undergo TTE or MUGA on study and as clinically indicated, as well as collection of blood samples throughout the trial.

This phase II/III trial compares the effect of the combination treatment with olaparib and temozolomide to trabectedin or pazopanib (two of the most common chemotherapy drugs used as usual approach) in patients with uterine leiomyosarcoma that may have spread from where it first started to nearby tissue, lymph nodes, or distant parts of the body (advanced) after initial chemotherapy has stopped working. The usual approach is defined as care most people get for advanced uterine leiomyosarcoma. Olaparib is a PARP inhibitor. PARP is a protein that helps repair damaged deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA). Blocking PARP may prevent tumor cells from repairing their damaged DNA, causing them to die. PARP inhibitors are a type of targeted therapy. Temozolomide is in a class of medications called alkylating agents. It works by slowing or stopping the growth of tumor cells in the body. The combination of olaparib and temozolomide may work better than the usual treatment in shrinking or stabilizing advanced uterine leiomyosarcoma after initial chemotherapy has stopped working.

PRIMARY OBJECTIVES:

I. To compare the progression free survival (PFS) of olaparib plus temozolomide (Arm 1) as compared to investigator's choice (trabectedin or pazopanib hydrochloride \[pazopanib\]) (Arm 2) for the treatment of patients with advanced uterine leiomyosarcoma (uLMS) who have received two or more prior lines of therapy as determined by investigator (local site) assessment. (Phase 2) II. To compare the overall survival (OS) of olaparib plus temozolomide (Arm 1) as compared to investigator's choice (trabectedin or pazopanib) (Arm 2) for the treatment of patients with advanced uLMS who have received two or more prior lines of therapy. (Phase 3)

SECONDARY OBJECTIVES:

I. To evaluate the safety and tolerability of each treatment by determining adverse events using Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE) version 5 and patient-reported toxicity using Patient-Reported Outcome (PRO)-CTCAE version 1 in and across each treatment arm. (Phase 2/3) II. To evaluate the objective response rate (ORR), duration of response (DOR) and disease control rate (DCR) in and across each treatment arm as determined by investigator assessment. (Phase 2/3)

EXPLORATORY OBJECTIVE:

I. To collect results of tumor genomic testing previously conducted as part of clinical care (when available) and (a) to determine the proportion of patients with a genomic alteration in a homologous recombination (HR) pathway gene and (b) to evaluate for any relationship between the presence of such an alteration and clinical benefit from olaparib and temozolomide. (Phase 2/3)

OUTLINE: Patients are randomized to 1 of 2 arms.

ARM 1: Patients receive temozolomide orally (PO) once daily (QD) on days 1-7 of each cycle and olaparib PO twice daily (BID) on days 1-7 of each cycle. Cycles repeat every 21 days in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. Patients undergo computed tomography (CT) scan or magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and/or bone scans throughout the trial. Patients also undergo collection of blood samples throughout the trial.

ARM 2: Patients receive trabectedin intravenously (IV) continuously over 24 hours on day 1 of each cycle or pazopanib PO QD on days 1-21 of each cycle. Cycles repeat every 21 days in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. Patients undergo CT scan or MRI and/or bone scans throughout the trial. Patients also undergo transthoracic echocardiography (TTE) or multi-gated acquisition scan (MUGA) on study and as clinically indicated, as well as collection of blood samples throughout the trial.

After completion of study treatment, patients without disease progression are followed every 6 weeks until disease progression. After disease progression, patients are followed every 3 months for the first 2 years, then every 6 months thereafter until 5 years post-randomization or death, whichever comes first.

Testing Olaparib and Temozolomide Versus the Usual Treatment for Uterine Leiomyosarcoma After Chemotherapy Has Stopped Working

A Randomized Phase 2/3 Study of Olaparib Plus Temozolomide Versus Investigator's Choice for the Treatment of Patients With Advanced Uterine Leiomyosarcoma After Progression on Prior Chemotherapy

NCI is committed to sharing data in accordance with NIH policy. For more details on how clinical trial data is shared, access the link to the NIH data sharing policy page.

Will collect results of next generation sequencing that is known to the treating investigator and was previously performed as part of the patient's clinical care, for all patients registered to the study. Will evaluate for genomic alterations in HR pathway genes. A genomic alteration is defined as a homozygous deletion or deleterious (loss-of-function) mutation in any of the pre-defined HR pathway genes.

Will evaluate whether patients with an HR pathway alteration experience increased clinical benefit from olaparib and temozolomide as compared patients who lack such an alteration, as determined by objective response rate, progression-free survival and overall survival. Response rates will be compared using the Fisher's exact test, and time to event endpoints summarized using the Kaplan-Meier curves and the log-rank test.

Will be estimated using the Kaplan-Meier method, where the stratified log-rank test will be used to compare the distributions across the treatment arms. PFS rates at 1 year, 2 years, and 5 years will also be reported, along with 95% confidence intervals. Univariable and multivariable Cox models stratified by the stratification factors used in the randomization will be assessed as well.

Will be estimated using the Kaplan-Meier method, where the stratified log-rank test will be used to compare the distributions across the treatment arms. OS rates at 1 year, 2 years, and 5 years will also be reported, along with 95% confidence intervals. Univariable and multivariable Cox models stratified by the stratification factors used in the randomization will be assessed as well.

Will be estimated by dividing the number of evaluable patients that achieve a confirmed response (partial response \[PR\] or better) by the total number of evaluable patients. This estimate will be calculated by arm and will also include a 95% confidence interval using the properties of the binomial distribution, and compared between the arms using a chi-square test.

This analysis is restricted to those patients that achieved a confirmed response (PR or better). Patients that go off of study treatment prior to progression will have their DOR time censored at that time.

Will be estimated using the number of patients that achieve complete response, partial response, or stable disease at the 6 week assessment divided by all evaluable patients. This estimate will be calculated by arm and will also include a 95% confidence interval using the properties of the binomial distribution, and compared between the arms using a chi-square test.

Adverse events will be recorded using National Cancer Institute Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE) version 5.0 for each patient. Frequency tables and summary statistics will be used and with the appropriate methods of evaluating categorical and continuous data. In addition, patient reported safety and tolerability will be assessed using Patient-Reported Outcomes (PRO)-CTCAE for a prespecified group of expected toxicities. PRO-CTCAE assessments will occur prior to registration and on day 1 of every cycle during treatment. Collection of PRO-CTCAE will be discontinued after cycle 11.
